8 1/2 week Black Australorp - pullet or cockerel?

[Beckyhsinglsc]

Boy or girl? I know BAs have big wattles, but I'm a little concerned about this chick. It's 8 1/2 weeks.
I'm pretty sure it came from McMurry. I picked it up at a feed store to give to my broody chicken that wouldn't quit. I was afraid she was going to die in the next box in the heat here. I already am sure of the sex of the other 4, but this one is harder. It was supposed to be a sexed pullet but you know how that goes.
If it's a rooster, that will be 3 of 5!

Thanks all! I was afraid of that. I think I was just hoping someone would say something like "That's a Black Australorp, they get their wattles and combs really early"
